35 numpty calls from Feb-May 2021. LBC, Fri-Sun, 10-1AM. If you like these uploads, buy me a beer: www.buymeacoff... Intro: Public Image Ltd. - Religion II Follow me on Twitter: @sinister_llama
Thank you again for all your amazing work, MJ! These have been so good, and it's obvious how much work you put in to get these watchable (not even counting the excellent music and political cartoons!) You're a legend, mate!
Brian from Stockton-on-Tees is pure gold......he is so entertaining, he could be given his own show [is he is real or just a living charicature]....mind you I am now listening to some edjit from Christchurch who should be locked up in the looney bin
I bet Brian’s poor wife isn’t really watching TV in a separate room, but using a pillow to stifle her screams of anguish.(Either that, or she’s quietly escaped and got halfway to Australia, using the Eastender’s omnibus as cover.)
UK is the most indebted nation in Europe, the same caller talks about Boris Johnson balancing the books during the pandemic,1 trillion pounds printed last year alone to balance the books,savers and pensions being robbed. modern monetary theory or the magic money tree keeps the IMF away.
People forget when they blame labour for the UK 's ills, that the Labour party is not in power and hasn't been for a number of years, this is the danger of a limited media which is unwilling to hold those in power to account. If the BBC goes which broadcaster would replace them?
@@Al-Hunt-acrylic-paintersome of these people are old enough to know better, you can’t change a mind already made up These ignorant people don’t want to learn, they hear what they want to hear
@@Al-Hunt-acrylic-painterI’m 27, some of these are over twice my age and they’re spouting nonsense This is the Daily Mail and Sun generation They only believe what they believe, being reasonable with them never works
@@Al-Hunt-acrylic-painter So it seems you agree with me unlike your earlier comment. FYI I stood in Penzance high street (few months before the referendum) with a group of remainers with information and the arguments I heard from brexiters remain the same today, nothing has changed, the same old 3 or 4 word catch phrases,, and this was in a town where the fish market was heavily subsidized by EU funding, as were loads of projects in Cornwall for many years.
@@andrewrobinson2565 by what standard are making that judgment no way is that accent a Mackem he support Sunderland as many Stockton people do but not a chance he is from wearside
"Waterloo wouldn't have been the same without the Union Jack ", Brian from Stockton on Tees. Waterloo is a small town in Belgium, and a big station in London. Both would have been exactly the same without the Union Jack.
Ah, yes, waterloo... the "hold position and endure until the prussians arrive" battle. But hey, who cares about details if little england can claim they won something?
@@janrautenstrauch4729 The scary thing is, mentioning the fact that, even if they had lost the battle of Waterloo, it wouldn't matter much, Napoleon would be just as dead, doesn't put their minds at rest at all. Au contraire. They seem to get angrier every time you point out that the war is over, and that it hasn't returned for so long was sort of the whole idea behind the EU. That's when you can actually hear the gammon sizzling.
@@janrautenstrauch4729 I see you’re one of these bizarre reverse gammons who feels the need to try and insult a country! Not a good neighbour you are you?
@@SSMMTTEE Coming from the side who calls the EU the EUSSR, rats, dictators and much more. You point the finger more than any other of our neighbours but act as if you're the victims. Your side fired on french fishingboats. Your side fears some kind of EU-army as if that wouldn't be something like the Nato (you're already in) just for europeans. The one bad neighbour we had, is little england. Also claiming to have won a war (for example WWII) while you lost far fewer people than russia is really arrogant. And what else was waterloo than a defend-position-battle to buy time? READ A BOOK!
The huge effort that Mr’s Abbot and O’Brien put in to correct the astonishing amount of misinformation is almost certainly wasted, as I doubt that any of these callers change their opinions once the phones go down.
1 trillion pounds printed last year alone, plus robbing savers and pensions ,that's what's keeping the books balanced. This country is one of the most indebted nation s in the world
The person from Liverpool who called the travelling people "gyppoes" at the beginning of his/her rant, goes on to be critical of people who refer to travellers as "pikeys" without any sense of either irony or humour
Another fabulous piece of entertainment... Great work, mate... This is almost a "best of"... I don't understand how Abbot is able to take these weirdos with such cool... But sure gives us an entertaining evening 🤣👍🏾
Thanks for putting these calls on you tube MN. They should be preserved in the British Museum for future generations. They need to hear them for themselves to understand the British human psyche from 2016 onwards.
@@janrautenstrauch4729 I understand. Then it is totally reasonable to remove the freedom of movement from these islanders. Who wants these genes to spread to other countries.
I live in one of the so called red wall constituencies just outside Manchester and I hear these type of people in my local cafe and walking group all the time. Don't know if it's depressing or worrying. One said this morning referring to his diabetes, I'm in good company and its a source of comfort because he's heard Boris suffers from the same condition .
I've only made it to the first caller who came on with the favourite, one million dollar, cliche, this-will-win-an-argument phrase of some - "gO wOkE, gO BrOkE" - and fell metaphorically flat on his face and was derailed within 10 seconds. Hilarious lol.
As for the IRA and HAMAS comment, in a world of smaller populations against first world militaries- asymmetric warfare - the few do what they have to do to beat the many. The IRA are Legion. Tiocfaidh at La
Flippin heck, I thought it was quite amusing at first, the number of callers who's points fall apart after the first examination. The further you listen, it becomes more depressing and tragic.
Tony @ 1.32.00 must surely have been a wind up......nobody could possibly be so dim......I take that back as I am now @ around 2:00:00 and the lunatics are still calling in.....this is actually pure gold [in a sad way] but Nick Abbot is a master at his craft but must be so grateful for his clientelle......by comparison most of them make James O'Brien's callers sound like PhD candidates
It's not caring about anyone. It's constantly being offended and seeing perceived injustice everywhere. Facts don't care about your feelings just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right. That sums being "woke" up nicely
Is Phil from Christchurch trying to be be the most annoying caller in the country? He is nowhere near in the same league as Brian. He is a poor imitation of the master
Channel 4 does and has made its own movies since it launced in the 80s... Some good British films too: Crying Game, Shallow Grave, Trainspotting, Gregory's Girl, Full Monty, Fever Pitch, My Beautiful Laundrette, Rita, Sue & Bob Too, Four Weddings & A Funeral, Madness of King George, Naked, Brassed of etc. to name but a few... Who'd of thunk it, Brian was right for once :o
"Channel 4 does and has made its own movies" which it does using licence-fee funding. I like C4, and its news is far less biased than the BBC, but it is publicly funded.
@@ohgosh5892 It isn't publicly funded, it's funded by advertisements! You need a license to watch it as many don't realise it is a licence for owning a tv that recieves live broadcasts not just specifically the BBC (which is fully funded by the license). Sounds even more absurd when you lay it out like that, would we tolerate them puting a levy on newer devices like laptops, smart phones or games consoles? Why the BBC isn't being offered as a subscription service at this stage is baffling, most people would not pay for it given the choice (same with the monarchy).
@@Yungrexy C4 " It isn't publicly funded" This is a very debateable point. In 2008-2010, C4 were seeking a £150m bail-out, and looking for a slice of the WT licence fee (s, not c, it's a noun)! What actually happened is murky in the extreme. When seeking state aid, the EU intervened, as they are legally required to. C4's response is here:ec.europa.eu/competition/state_aid/reform/comments_broadcasting/channel_4.pdf Furthermore, as C4 are state owned, and the Tories have interfered in appointments as here: www.theguardian.com/media/2021/apr/14/ministers-veto-reappointment-of-two-women-to-channel-4-board This points to the worst of all worlds, a commercially funded, taxpayer bailed-out, tory run broadcaster. The tories have also looked at a 'sell-off', where, as usual, they take something we already own, and sell it to us, Thatcher style.
Self awareness isnt a thing for the right wing but at least it lets you know who the genuinely stupid people show up, because you can predict their lack of listening ability.
Labour Parties Bad Fascist Tories good. My Tory friends used to love the BBC and now their saying it's be run by the far left, obvious it not and it's run by Conservative appointees.
The BBC has not lost all the sport. I have lost count of the number of times the schedules have been thrown into disarray because the football or tennis has gone over the allotted slot.
I am going to risk being egged and floured here by saying I actually agree with Brian. I think The BBC has had it's day and it's just old-fashioned now. Even an old favourite of mine, Radio 4's Today programme (which you don't even need a licence for), I have dumped this programme for LBC and CZcams.
If they downscaled to making only quality programmes, i.e. the documentaries, dramas, and comedies, and became a streaming service, perhaps that would work.
Whoa...whaddya mean "old fashioned"? What's fashion got to do with it? When you look at the colossal range of material on the iPlayer, not just the current stuff, but the vast archive, it is an exceptional and unparalleled resource of audio and TV content. Not all of it's my cuppa tea by any means, but there's something for everyone. Quality that'll never go out of fashion.
@@m.j.nicholls What does The BBC do apart from those three things? Anyway the issue was about the TV licence. That is my issue too. The TV licence in itself out of touch. I don't even have a TV and neither do a lot of people I know and that's by choice. Technology has moved on and the BBC have to move on with it.
Nick is misunderstanding the nature of nuclear deterrence, its not for the now or maybe tomorrow necessarily (but possibly); but it is an insurance policy for changes that may happen geopolitically in the 2030s, 2040s and 2050s in an increasingly unstable world that simply cannot be fully predicted. Iran, North Korea and Pakistan, all are nuclear armed or will be in the future, [Iran is not going to stop pursing this technology], as is China, and certainly the first three are unpredictable and potentially politically unstable. With global warming and increasing internal political instability, nuclear blackmail from some quarter may be real threat in the future if we gave up our capability. To retain the technology [rather than loosing it] and the UK's ability to operate it, which is cheap compared to vast armies, navy's or air forces we can no longer afford, is a sensible defence policy for the decades ahead and all the uncertainty that undoubtedly exits!! Sorry Nick, but you are wrong about this one!!
I do love the undisguised contempt Abbott displays towards his listeners, or at least those that call him. It is very funny. Time was, if a radio phone in host was so unashamedly rude to his callers, it would have been professional suicide.
Got to love Brian from Stockton on Tees. He gets slaughtered every time but he keeps on coming back for more.
Thank you again for all your amazing work, MJ! These have been so good, and it's obvious how much work you put in to get these watchable (not even counting the excellent music and political cartoons!) You're a legend, mate!
6 days ago: _"This is the last Abbot compilation for a while."_
Drunks and Brian in Stockton-on-Tees: _"Hold my phone"_
🤣
Brian from Stockton-on-Tees is pure gold......he is so entertaining, he could be given his own show [is he is real or just a living charicature]....mind you I am now listening to some edjit from Christchurch who should be locked up in the looney bin
The grown men who call in crying about Harry and Meghan crack me up.
But if i ask a white male to be a bit less hateful I'm told I'm "offended by everything"🤣
Cruella mark-el is taking our 'arry Frum us!
Day drinking during lockdown has caused permanent brain damage.
Well, since brexiteers like Brian already existed before covid, i con't think one can blame it for this. Not everything is the virus' fault.
"you started it. Oh it was just a gambit, an amuse-bouche"!!!
I broke me hole laughing at that one.
🤣🤣at broke me hole laughing. I want to use is that ok? because I broke me hole laughing 😆
@@risingphoenix8072 be my guest . It is a phrase used extensively in Ireland!
Another appropriate Irish saying for these callers “as thick as pig shit in a milk bottle”.
I hit the like button during the opening music. You just know this is going to be good…
Just done exactly that then saw your comment 👍🏼
I bet Brian’s poor wife isn’t really watching TV in a separate room, but using a pillow to stifle her screams of anguish.(Either that, or she’s quietly escaped and got halfway to Australia, using the Eastender’s omnibus as cover.)
She left and took the kids a long time ago.
She doesn't exist
I like to imagine Brian's missus oot with her pals on the piss leaving Mr Boring home alone.
😂😂😂
She probably hooked up with some Spanish guy, hence his raging hatred for the EU.
"something rhyming with wit" starting off with a good one holy shit
I honestly can’t decide if Nick Abbot has the absolute best radio gig in the world or the absolute worst. 🤔
Thanks
You're welcome.@@louisepotter9339
Love the opening caller when Nick said you rhyme something with wit 🤣
I’m sure the insult didn’t hit home though 😊😊
😊
_"Go woke go broke"_ "Its a well known saying" 😂
What a start!

Isn't it better to educate than to be rude to people?

Proper odd couple vibes.
Brilliant
Why have only just discovered Nick Abbot. Wonderful! X
Same. I can't believe I've missed out on these gems over the last few years.
His shows on Friday, Saturday and now Sunday nights are my favourite tonic for dealing with the madness

Thank you for sharing. Having a great laugh. Brian from Stockton-on-Tees, keep calling
He rang the other night and admitted he'd reported Nick so Nick cut him off so he might not have him back on....
I always fast-forward when he comes on. He's a one trick pony - if you're heard him once you've heard him a hundred times...... a total bore.

1:50:00 "In China, you know, there are people who know and people who don't know"
Right, so exactly like in Britain then?
Thanks for putting these calls on you tube MN. They should be preserved in the British Museum for future generations. They need to hear them for themselves to understand the British human psyche from 2016 onwards.
When we hear these calls there remains one question: Is there something bad in the water or in the food?
I suspect they’ve used an illicit supply of lead paint, which they lick daily.
There will be hormone riddled beef soon, if the Tories have their way.

Brian gets so much enjoyment from others misery is fucking disturbing......and hilarious.
Kinda like a sadist, trying to make Nick his sub... unsuccessfully.

They are all radicalised by Big Nigel and then marinated by Mike Graham!!!
Could listen to Nick talk to Phil from Dorset/Christchurch ALL DAY !!!
Thanks, M.J. :))
All the callers sound like the older voters.
Sometimes I think Brian is a Remainer Comic taking the mickey
That would make him the most masochistic remainer ever.
‘We need to find a way to bung up volcanoes’ - That is Karl Pilkington wisdom from a man phoning in to LBC
